Isro Scientists  

Nitish Shrimal, a Space Engineer at ISRO, is an inspirational figure who overcame all the hurdles life threw at him. Hailing from a remote part of Rajasthan, Shrimal did not qualify for IIT-JEE and had to overcome language barriers to learn in college. Yet, he achieved his goal of learning about space and landed his dream job. 

Jainul is creating country’s first reusable rocket (a rocket that can be used multiple times). Accomplishing this feat would result in a significant technological advancement. In 2020, the Central Government granted approval for private sector involvement in space science. At 19, Jainul founded his company ‘Abyom Space Tech and Defence’. ISRO scientists recognized his efforts and dedication to the field of space. 
 

ISRO scientists have found the Vikram lander lying on the lunar surface after a hard landing, in a tilted position. Vikram lander lost connection with the ground staff just minutes away from the scheduled soft landing. 

ISRO is relentlessly working towards restoring a link with Chandrayaan 2’s lander Vikram. However, ISRO scientists believe that that the longer it takes, the lesser the probability to establish link.

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has located the exact location of the Vikram lander using Optical High Resolution Camera (OHRC). The organisation is trying to establish contact with the lander.

Prominent actors like Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan and Kamal Hassan offered words of encouragement to ISRO scientists and hailed them for the moon mission - Chandrayaan-2

While ISRO scientists wait for the soft-landing of Chandrayaan 2’s Vikram lander on the moon, scientists now recall the nail-biting experience during the launch of India’s first lunar mission. 
 

Minutes after the successful launch of GSLV- MkIII-M1 in Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh on Monday (July 22), several politicians praised ISRO. The mission's success brought in massive relief for ISRO scientists after the July 15 launch was called off following a technical glitch in the rocket.
